ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe

Cultural institution located in the industrial city of Karlsruhe (Germany), a kind of "electronic or digital Bauhaus", an expression that dates back to the founding director Heinrich Klotz. ZKM combines research and production, exhibitions and performances, collections and archives, mediation and events around the rapid changes that occur in technology and how these generate certain types of structural transformations, at a social level. The different projects that are developed have a multidisciplinary character, which is why different organizations have been created to cover different needs. In this way, the ZKM has the Museum for Contemporary Art, the Media Museum, the Institute for Visual Media, the Institute for Music and Acoustics, the Institute for Basic Research, the Institute for Media and Economics and the Filminstitute.
